The Dirty Ball - 4/24/10

It was a steamy night in the Strip District for Pittsburgh’s sexiest party of the year — the fifth annual Dirty Ball, where more than 1,000 guests were celebrating the 15th birthday of Attack Theatre, a non-profit theater that features modern dance, original music, and art. The Dirty Ball, which featured multiple DJs and 15 performances by 15 dancers on five different stages, exceeded the expectations of Attack Theatre by bringing in more than $61,000 in proceeds. Prior to the main event, a Dirty Donor Reception was held for VIP guests, featuring a Birthday Burlesque performance, wine, and dinner. “We have great volunteers, and I think everyone had a phenomenal time,” says event co-chair Michele Petruccelli. “We couldn’t have been more thrilled for our 15th birthday.” Photography by Rachel Stadelmeier
